"As the person involved, I was the one who was scared, okay?" Xia Minmin changed her shoes and lay down on the sofa to rest.
Xia Jianguo took out the food scale that Xia Minmin used to make the cake from the kitchen.
"Jianguo, what are you doing?"
Xia Minmin listened to Li Chunmei's words and looked up at the dining table.

Xia Jianguo put the gold into a safe, which also contained gold they had previously bought for their daughter, bringing the total weight to nine kilograms.
